I am a qualified yoga teacher and trained under Wanda Hewitt (Founder and Yoga Education Director at YogaLimbs Hong Kong) at the 250 hours Yoga Alliance registered Yoga teacher training program in Hong Kong in 2008. I was born in Hong Kong and got degrees in journalism and psychology. Before immersing myself into yoga, I worked as a news reporter and in fundraising sector at a non-governmental organization. Then I further explored the diversity of yoga in Berlin and got certified to children yoga teacher by Carmen Ramirez Schmidt, a children yoga trainer in Germany.
